Overview

The BC548 is a bipolar made by onsemi in a TO-92-3 package with 3 pins. 1 NPN 100mA 110 15nA 300MHz 30V 500mW 600mV 6V NPN Standalone TO-92-3 Bipolar (BJT) ROHS.

PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Transistor_BJT:BC548, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_TO_SOT_THT:TO-92_Inline, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. JLCPCB lists it (part C3201670).

Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the BC548?

Yes. The symbol is Transistor_BJT:BC548 and the footprint Package_TO_SOT_THT:TO-92_Inline, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the BC548?

TO-92-3, with 3 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the BC548 datasheet?

onsemi publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the BC548?

JLCPCB lists it as part C3201670, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the BC548?

Parts like it in the library: the S8050 by JSMSEMI, the S8550 by JSMSEMI, the 2N3904 by JSMSEMI and the 2N3904BU by onsemi. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
